To the Editor: Congratulations to the Medical Journal of Australia for emphasising the role of health professionals in needing to lead by example towards a sustainable future. Talley's editorial1 encourages health care professionals to reduce health care's own carbon footprint and pollution, noting that, “With a concerted effort, the Australian health system could achieve zero net emissions and relatively soon, and we applaud all the ongoing state initiatives”.
